Joint Australian-United States naval Task Group 17.3 under air torpedo attack by Imperial Japanese Navy land-based bombers during the Battle of the Coral Sea on 7 May 1942. A Japanese Mitsubishi G4M Type 1 bomber flies past the cruiser HMAS Australia (D84). The smoke astern of the cruiser marks where another Japanese bomber has been shot down.
